Reservations on Cape Cod and the Islands

Many thousands of years ago, glacial action helped form the Cape and the two large islands situated off its southern shoreline: Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket.

Today, you can still witness the impacts of the massive ice sheet on these magnificent landscapes, from the Vineyard's sea cliffs and Nantucket's Great Point to the immaculate "kettle hole" ponds and tidal rivers of the Cape.

From the wild salt marshes and roaring surf of Coskata-Coatue to the quiet, pond-side picnic spots at Lowell Holly, these Trustees reservations will surely create lasting memories for you and your family.

The FARM Institutehttp://www.thetrustees.org/places-to-visit/cape-cod-islands/the-farm-institute.html41.360885-70.517426

The FARM Institute is located on the historic Katama Farm, a farm that dates back to the early 1900s. In the late 1970s, a collaborative group of neighbors and friends interested in saving Katama Farm from being subdivided into 700 building lots formed the "Committee to Do Something". With their help, the Edgartown Conservation Commission became the landlord of Katama Farm, conserving its history and future as a working farm. Today, The Trustees are happy to welcome The FARM Institute into our family of more than 100 inspired places statewide.
